KH*SA*KH*SA

Akashi sat, tapping away at his laptop keyboard. Papers were scattered around him, all important documents that needed review before either signing or discarding. It was simple, really, and something he'd been doing for years. Regardless, the work was tedious and seemed to never end.

And if it felt like he was rushing through the pile, well… he was. Technically, he wasn't supposed to be working during his off time. Technically, he had promised that he wouldn't.

Which is why I must finish this last email before she—Akashi's thought was cut off when he felt a distinctly feminine body press against his back, lush curves molding to his harder planes, and delicate arms wrapping around his shoulders from behind to dangle equally delicate hands against his chest. A diamond ring sparkled from a very specific finger, catching his eye. When he felt a dainty chin rest in the nook between his neck and shoulder, he froze. He knew he was in trouble.

"What are you doing, Sei-kun?" Her voice was soft with reproach.

Akashi cleared his throat. "Ah, Kagome…"

"You promised me you wouldn't work while we were here."

He cringed. No one – and he meant no one – could make him react the way she did. Kagome Higurashi – now, as of a few hours ago, Kagome Higurashi-Akashi – was normally a sweet and generous young woman with the kindest heart. However, once crossed, she was a force to be reckoned with. She had a rather infamous temper and an almost-cutthroat attitude when it came to business. It wasn't surprising she had taken over her father's company the same way Akashi had taken over his. In every way that mattered, she was his perfect fit.

An emperor, after all, needed his very own empress…

"Sei-kun, this is our honeymoon and we're at a very exclusive hot springs resort," said empress pointed out, like he hadn't realized it himself. "If you would rather be working, I'm sure I could find someone else to keep me company…"

Faster than the eye could follow, Akashi snapped his laptop shut, then easily flipped Kagome over until her petite figure sat in his lap. When she blinked up at him innocently, he scowled.

"Not necessary. You will not seek out other people's company, especially male company. Ever again."

"Are you sure?" She cocked her head to the side, like a curious puppy. A devious gleam within her amethyst orbs, however, gave away her true intentions. "You seemed more interested in work than spending time with me."

Akashi's brow twitched. Only she would be so bold as to question him. "My orders are absolute."

Kagome's fingers gently played with the short hairs at the back of his neck, humming pleasantly. "It's so cute how you think your 'orders' affect me," she replied, a cheeky grin stretching across her lips.

Before the former Captain of the Generation of Miracles could respond, the raven haired beauty popped out of his lap to stand in front of him. The way her expression went from playful to seductive had his attention riveted in an instant.

"Come on, Sei-kun," she cajoled, "We're not supposed to be working. I want to spend time with my new husband." Her next words came out like a purr. "In the hot springs. Right now."

In the next instant, Kagome released a delighted squeal when Akashi tossed her over his shoulder, his destination obvious. She couldn't help but think, Now whose orders are absolute?

Behind every powerful man, after all, was an equally powerful woman. If there ever was someone who could stand beside Akashi without flinching, it was Kagome. She really, truly was the empress to his emperor.

And if she happened to know which buttons to push to get what she wanted…

She smiled, charming and calculative.
